Chapter 12: Into the Mountains in Search of Tea
It didn't take long in the afternoon for everyone to get almost ready, and at this time everyone was about to leave, when Officer Zhang asked Wen Cun, "Are you okay?"
When Officer Zhang asked Wen Cun, Yu Mo saw them, so he walked over and asked Wen Cun why he didn't wear the shoes he wore this morning, and he went up the mountain today, and the road on the mountain was not easy to walk.
Officer Zhang heard Yu Mo mention this, and Wen Cun was flat-footed, so he and Yu Mo persuaded Wen Cun to put on the shoes.
Wen Cun listened to the two of them, and it didn't take long for him to put his shoes on. Here, Ms. Zhang Chen and Mi Lan were also almost ready, and several of them went together next.
This time the journey into the mountain was even more dangerous and difficult than the previous ones, because they went to the inside of the beautiful mountain.
The terrain is more complex and unpredictable, the weather changes, and the damage to wildlife is potentially dangerous.
The few of them accompanied each other in case there was any danger on the road. Just as a few people were going up the mountain, Wen Cun's shoes suddenly slipped and almost fell, if it weren't for the support of Officer Zhang next to him, I am afraid that he would fall again.
At this time, Officer Zhang looked at Wen Cun and said, "Hey, your feet are not suitable for climbing the mountain now." Officer Zhang was thinking that Wen Cun was flat, coupled with the bumpy road in the recent days of climbing, the weather in the mountain was not good, and there may have been old diseases in the past, he was thinking that he might suffer again in the next journey.
At this time, Wen Cun raised his head, looked at Officer Zhang, smiled and said, "It's just a slippery kick, it's okay." At this time, Ms. Zhang Chen and Mi Lan showed a little nervousness about Wen Cun's feet, and scrambled to ask Xiang Wen Cun's feet how they were, if they were in the way.
At this time, Yu Mo also seemed a little panicked, and he looked at Wen Cun's shoes. Officer Zhang also saw all this.
Several people continued to hurry, when Officer Zhang suddenly said: "The place we walked, in the depths of the mountain, has no one been here before?"
Mi Lan looked back at Officer Zhang and said, "I think maybe not, I haven't heard anything about my grandmother before." Wen Cun looked at Mi Lan in front of him and said, "There may be, some explorers in the wild, don't exclude their appearance, it's just that we don't know."
Officer Zhang turned to Yu Mo at this time and asked, "Yu Mo, you are engaged in geography, do you know much about this place?" At this time, Yumo said: "I don't know a lot, but with the close cooperation of explorers and geographers, I believe that places like Miyama will gradually be understood."
Officer Zhang smiled and said, "I'm afraid that the murder case in this place will not be easy to solve." At this time, Mi Lan looked at Officer Zhang, and Officer Zhang also saw that Mi Lan was looking at him. Zhang Chennu, who was leading the way in front, suddenly turned around and said, "Officer Zhang's occupational disease has been committed again."
After saying that, everyone smiled, and only Mi Lan was still silent. Both Yu Mo and Officer Zhang noticed this scene, and the two of them looked at each other as if to convey something.
At this time, Ms. Zhang Chen, who was walking in front, said that everyone should sit down and rest, so several people sat down in a place where there were a few stones around.
The stone is hard and hard, and it is not easy to find such a large stone on such a high slope despite the harsh weather in the mountains for many years.
Just when a few people sat down for a while to rest, at this time, the careful officer Zhang seemed to see something, and he was thinking about the way they came just now.
Almost every time they took a step, the small pebbles under their feet slid down, and the place where they rested, the slope was not low, and the stones were not small, but why did they feel so stable.
Just as a few of them were resting, Officer Zhang squatted down and looked at the low level of these large stones, and saw some obvious traces.
These traces may be due to age, and there are some shallow and wide traces around them, but from the slope and the weight of the large rock, the time is not allowed to stay for such a large stone for too long, but if the base of the stone is relatively stable, it is possible.
Officer Zhang was guessing that it was likely that someone had dug deep soil a little below the stone not long after it had fallen to the place.
When the stone is hit and rolled down again, it is entirely possible that it will have a deeper foundation. At this time, Yu Mo walked over to Officer Zhang and asked, "Seeing that you are here alone, are you thinking about anything?"
Officer Zhang smiled and said, "You guessed right, I saw that you suddenly remembered some of the things you told me before." Yu Mo said, "Something." Suddenly, Ms. Zhang Chen shouted at this time that everyone began to prepare to leave, and Officer Zhang was carrying something at this time, patted Yu Mo on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Look at the stone is low."
When Officer Zhang left, he looked down at the bottom of the stone, his eyes stared for a long time, and when he raised his head again, he happened to meet the eyes of Officer Zhang who turned around. Yumo seemed to convey something, but it was vague.
When several people carried their bags forward, Yu Mo walked at the back, and Officer Zhang and Ms. Zhang Chen walked in front. When he saw Mi Lan, who was not far from him, he suddenly quickened his pace, but when he saw Officer Zhang who was chatting leisurely with Ms. Zhang Chen in front of him, he gradually slowed down his pace.
Yu Mo had been staring at Officer Zhang at this time, and he had a different attitude towards Officer Zhang. At this time, Wen Cun found that Yu Mo felt a little wrong, so he walked to his side and said, "Yu Mo, what's wrong with you, are you feeling unwell."
Yes, the higher and steeper this mountain is, the more it climbs, it is a test of people's physical strength and willpower, everyone's pace is getting slower and slower, and the distance between several people is gradually pulling in.
At this time, when Ms. Zhang Chen plucked a plant from the grass, Yu Mo took the plant from Ms. Zhang Chen's hand and asked, "What is this?" Mi Lan looked at it and said: "At this time, a medicine for treating external injuries may be bumped and fallen at any time in the mountains, and this external application of wounds can be relieved."
Officer Zhang interjected at this time and said, "Mi Lan, you know?" Yu Mo watched all this silently from the side. Mi Lan's facial expression suddenly changed and said, "Yes, when I was a child, my father often came back with these things."
At this time, Mi Lan said: "I was still relatively young at the time, although I don't remember much, but what I remember more is that my father holds a sickle and a shovel all the year round." At this time, Officer Zhang on the side said: "These two things are indispensable things for medicine pickers in the mountains, and they are normal."
Mi Lan replied: "Yes, my father's hands also have traces of grinding these things, and the cocoons are thicker, but once my father shed a lot of blood where he made the calluses."
Yu Mo said in a seemingly joking sentence at this time: "Only if the external force is greater, I think it will take a certain amount of time to work before it will bleed in the calloused place." After saying that, a few people walked forward together, and Officer Zhang always felt that he was preoccupied.
